‘At Night’ chosen as WITF book of the month

Maybe you didn’t know it, but Harrisburg has an award-winning illustrator right in its midst. Jonathan Bean has illustrated for everyone from The New York Times to publishers including Scholastic and Simon and Schuster.

He’ll discuss his books — including “Building Our House,” to be released next year — from 10 a.m. to noon Aug. 25 at Midtown Scholar Bookstore, 1302 N. Third St., Harrisburg.

Then, stick around in the afternoon from 2 to 4 p.m. for a book signing with Kari Larsen, author of the recent release “Say You’re a Fiction.” Visit www.midtownscholar.com or call 717-236-1680 for details.

About this blog

What do book lovers enjoy almost as much as reading a book? Talking about it, of course! A group of us here at the Daily Record/Sunday News has decided to take our book talk beyond the newsroom.

We'll share what we like, and what we don't, about the books we are reading. This will also be the place to find out about local authors, new releases, upcoming book signings and what's going on at the York County libraries.

And, of course, we want to hear from you too. Email your book review to books@ydr.com and we will post it on Book Buzz.
